Installing MP 1.0.2 (1 Viewer)

Hi,

I'm trying to install the latest mediaPortal and get to the point where you have to install MPC Video Decoder.This is where things go belly up!
I Create the following folder under your Program Files: C:\Program Files\MPCVideoDecoder and extract MPCVideoDec.ax i downloaded earlier to C:\Program Files\MPCVideoDecoder.
From the Start menu i select Run and type in the following command: regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\MPCVideoDecoder\MPCVideoDec.ax". I get an error message "
Error Code: 0x80070005" and i'm stuck from this point.I've tried installing the same set up on another computer and come across the same problem.I've tried turning off the virus and firewall software but seems to make no differance.
I would be very grateful for any pointers or help,i'm totally stuck!
